Well before I said, "Now with the osNpcLoadAppearence with the release 
of 0.7.3.1, I can give NPCs a try."  I guess I will just wait again 
until this is worked on.  Don't worry, so many other wonderful things 
have been given to us by these brilliant minds working on opensim, I 
have so much else to work on before I try this new NPC functionality.

I think opensim will keep me busy for the rest of my life.

InuYasha.
